@fantuanss I did this cascade a year ago by doing this Best of 2012-- 910 sp - DD# 546: Chun Co Teppanyaki Grill (150 SP), it is also DD# 149, 160, 497, &579 - DD# 952: Stones Throw Greenhouse (760 SP) - Best of 2012--- free! Dont know for sure about the other method that was proposed but just owning the grill and the…
Mods like Error trap, Overwatch, Master control, Traveler and Traffic (all from Nraas) are basically essential to play this game. Before having them, I was spending more time trying to fix bugs and glitches than playing the game. Dont know about the supposed « great looks » of the moderators but I can tell you that the…
Same thing happened to me. I bought the Hidden Springs/Monte Vista world bundle and then noticed I had the blue download button for Barnacle Bay. I downloaded and installed it but it does not show as owned on my page. This is surely a glitch as we were not suppose to get Barnacle Bay. Of course it wont register as we own…
@tallcoolone I had a problem with this building just a few months ago. I uninstalled it in game (the building and all the exclusive items that come with it) and downloaded it again from my purchase history. I then installed it on the launcher and it appeared in my library for me to place in my world again.
You would need to be more specific if you want help. Are you using windows or mac, steam or origin ? You say you downloaded the items, did you install them ? What do you see in the download and install tabs on the launcher ?
If you are inviting sims that are scheduled to work at university (cash register attendants, mascot etc) they will show up at the party but leave soon after.
For me, it did not place automatically and I placed it myself. It will be in your library and you can place it in any world you want. I use it as a wedding venue.
Thanks for your answer @igazor . I did not know about the refrigerator trick. Yes, Uniworld is a lot more fluid and changing than my homeworld. I’m on generation 8 (using normal lifespan) and many sims in uniworld have family trees linking back to the original sims. Apart from a short period (around generation 2-3) when…
I have had similar messages before from the launcher. They were related to registration reward items from the store. The specific extension need to be activated in the launcher to be able to install them.
@puzzlezaddict @ZeeGee Update as I was interacting with a Steam user who had the exact same problem on Reddit. Deleting igs.bin and platform.bin in the SigsCache folder fixed the problem for this person. This seems like an easy and viable solution at this point.
@BlueSpaarkle I got it by getting the grill for 150sp on DD and the Greenhouse. This made it free. @jojie4 Please read the post above to adjust your situation.
To get the Make a Wish for free at DD 853, you need a CYS of 1305sp or less. For the best of 2012, just getting the Greenhouse will give it a CYS of 35sp. This was confirmed by @BlueSpaarkle and you can trust this.
@FairyGodMother Thank you for your input; good to hear from you ! The problem I have with the boxes; store items not showing up does not occur when downloading store items. It is when wanting to play the game. Store items that are correctly installed (all store items) are not showing up in game and appear as boxes on the…
That teddy is possessed. I found it but never could take it out of that room. I could pick it up but whatever action my sim would do after this would make him drop the teddy bear.
@ZeeGee The problem appeared again last night. All store items shows boxes in the download tab of the launcher and only venue buildings show up in the installed tab. I had to do my trick to make them appear (or get the launcher to recognize them). I exit the launcher, close Origin (not only X the window but also close the…
Thank you so much once again @FairyGodMother for the fabulous gifts ! They will help in my quest to Beach Bummin’. I’m also working on the Mid Century Dinning and style set and the One with Nature set.
@waterywatermelon Great that you got best of 2012 ! If you are still missing items from the Fabulous Fiesta, April 2012 should be free for you. Also, look at DD#59 Eloquently Eclectic later on today. It will be free for you. @jojie4 Math is hard on these deals sometimes and does not always makes sense. Best of 2012 is a…
@ZeeGee I did buy the base game and the same thing happened again. Boxes in the download tab and only venues buildings showing in the installed tab. I had to start a new Sims 3 folder, download everything again from the store and install it on the launcher. I got the missing item message when launching the game after this.…
Thank you @FairyGodMother for the great gifts ! These will help to complete the sets. I will get Street Couture when it comes up on DD later today and continue working towards Beach Bummin’ and Mid Century dinning and style set.
In this case, yes Fabulous fiesta will be free by owning the Haute Hacienda kitchen which will reduce your CYS by 90% of the 608sp that HH Kitchen is worth.
@jojie4 Just remember that when purchasing a set in which you do not own anything, you have to purchase an item (preferably the cheapest one) first to start the CYS function. This will give you 10% off the price of the set plus 90% off the full price of the item you own.
Owning the Future shock living will give you March 2011 for free on DD 20 tomorrow. The route for Fabulous Fiesta without doing the Best of 2012 cascade would be * Fabulous Fiesta, 201/1045 sp, 81% - DD #939 Desert Cactus Sculpture (7/30 sp) - DD #189 Talavera Tile Wall Mirror (27/81) - DD #400 Talevera Tile Island (28/68)…
